What a day and night for City Section sports
Tuesday was quite a day and night for City Section sports in the Southern California basketball and soccer regionals.
From Birmingham knocking off Harvard-Westlake in Division I basketball to Fremont getting 44 points from Chris Bradford to defeat Ontario Christian in Division IV to University upsetting San Diego Montgomery in overtime in Division III, the competitive equity playoffs are very good for the City Section.
